Root over rock ponytail palm

[Beetleman72]

Has anyone heard of someone trying a root over rock ponytail palm? I've just started a root over rock ponytail palm experiment because I think it'll look really cool but when I got to the roots they were not how I had imagined. Can this be done sucessfully with a ponytail pallor am I crazy?

In my experience, the roots of ponytail palms will not thicken up enough to be able to plant on a rock. Plus, there will not be a smooth transition between the bulbous trunk part and the roots anyway, so it will not look natural.

That's what I was thinking. Thank you.
